My favorite Devo song. :mrgreen:
Sounds like Violence in Our Minds by Last Resort, but with absolutely fucking terrible vocals.
This is rampant Hoyism.

I've checked out more Devo, and I don't like it at all.

Yeah, upon review, I would go with a heavy LIKE as well. I like most other bands in the same genre better..

Last Resort were awesome.
I feel that there is a fascistic element, for example, in the Rolling Stones . . .

On a related early 80's UK Oi!/Devo note:

The last two songs I played in my DJ set on Saturday were...

Devo - Gut Feeling
The Business - Get Outta My House

Devo sound like Screech from Saved by the Bell fronting the Human League doing a poor Rolling Stones cover.
